Last Days
Gus Van Sant's languid meditation on the price of fame was partly inspired by the life and death of Kurt Cobain. Blake (Michael Pitt) leads an influential indie band that has become unexpectedly successful; but unsure of himself or his fame, Blake wanders through his run-down mansion, wishing he could free himself from his ennui. Sonic Youth's Kim Gordon appears in the film while husband and bandmate, Thurston Moore, consulted on the score.
